This
is one of my old favorites. If you have a few hours to spare then this is the
machine for you. The game plan is simple - get wins in on the line which can
then be staked on three more reels to increase the win. Once you have a win in
the top money bank you can spin the top reels for a chance of another win at
the cost of £1. It is possible to play it on lower stakes but it
isn’t worth while. The aim is to build up the bank until either the total
reaches the jackpot amount or the 3 bells roll in. Generally if your first good
climb is around the £50 region you will win good money. Sometimes the
money bank can be on a single climb for several hours and it is a good idea to
jam something like a piece of card into the start button to stop your arm
aching! If the machine is backing from the start it is very unlikely you will
lose, I never have. This machine does not have a cash pot so it really is a
matter of timing. There is a small amount of afterplay by playing the top reels
on a smaller stake (60p or 40p). I have even known of another jackpot paid out
this way.
Update: Jackpots can be available on all 3 stakes. If you are
very clever and learn the certain patterns you can play the stake-swithcing
trick when you recognise certain wins are about to drop in, for example if the
3 bells just fail to line up in the window, a full house of oranges will follow
so change up to the £1 stake!
